"Beautiful People" Recap and Video-Post (2.3): "How I Got My Water Feature"

So adult Simon is in the middle of a job interview, and he mistakes the interviewer for an American, and can I just say? I love it when British actors imitate American accents (and jargon)! I live here, and even I can tell that, yes, we do sound just that ridiculous.

Almost immediately, the show gives us another hilarious bit of classic, British Beautiful People humor: Debbie exercising to Fit Farka, a burqa-garbed TV fitness guru (“She’s got very beguiling eyes!” Debbie says).

Politically incorrect much?

Simon, meanwhile, is distraught over his family’s lack of a water feature in their backyard. If you watch this show, you know that, yes, this makes perfect sense. Somehow this leads to Simon imagining himself singing “Enough is Enough” in a duet with “the first lady of musical theatre, Eileen Page.” Again, if you watch this show, you know that this also makes perfect sense.

Fun gay fact: Barbra's Streisand's original version of this song (sung, of course, with Donna Summer) appears on the Streisand album Wet, making it particularly appropriate for this episode. And yes, I'm even more gay than Simon, aren't I?

In order to pay for the water feature, Simon and Kylie get a Saturday job at a local boutique. I’ve already made my attraction to Simon's oddly-hot dad Andy clear, so I feel compelled to add a picture of him with the fetching new haircut in another one of Simon’s flights of fancies:

Incidentally, the "erection" scene was interesting, no? Or did that get cut out of the Logo broadcast?

Next Page! Simon and Kylie get up close and personal with a woman's breasts. Plus, watch the full ep!
